THE  KITCHEN  THAT  MAKES 


A  HOUSE— A  HOME.' 


The  White  House  Line 

TRADE  MARK 


HETHER  new  or  old,  any  kitchen 
may  be  made  attractive,  efficient  and 
livable  by  giving  a  little  thought  to 
arrangement.  The  kitchen,  like  the  living  room, 
dining  room  and  bedroom,  may  be  made  indi¬ 
vidual  and  to  fill  the  requirements  of  the  family. 

The  old  idea  of  a  standard  “model’’  kitchen 
is  rapidly  becoming  a  myth,  but  any  kitchen 
may  be  made  model  by  proper  arrangement. 

WHITE  HOUSE  Units  are  particularly  adapt¬ 
able  for  making  charming,  individual  kitchens. 
The  variety  of  designs  and  sizes  of  our  standard 
Units,  which  include  Dressers,  Broom,  Linen, 
and  Storage  Closets,  Pot  Closets,  Sink  Units, 
and  Tables, — renders  it  possible  to  make  a  com¬ 
plete  layout  for  any  kitchen,  large  or  small.  In 
this  booklet  will  be  found  many  interesting 
Units  and  combinations  to  fill  all  kitchen  re¬ 
quirements. 


The  materials  used  in  WHITE  HOUSE  con¬ 
struction  are  only  the  best;  throughout  there  is 
the  highest  grade  rust-resisting  furniture  steel 
covered  with  the  finest  white  enamel  obtainable 
— three  coats,  each  coat  baked.  Our  enamel 
finish,  the  result  of  years  of  study,  will  last  con¬ 
siderably  longer  than  any  other  enamel  finish. 
After  years  of  service,  WHITE  HOUSE  Units 
can  be  re-enameled  in  your  own  home  by  your 
painter.  Double  doors,  rabbetted  frames,  inter¬ 
locking  construction,  bullet  catches,  rubber 
bumpers,  and  semi-concealed  hinges  are  a  few 
of  the  features  which  insure  perfection  and 
make  of  WHITE  HOUSE  Units  a  quality 
product. 


Architects  and  builders  all  over  the  country 
are  giving  more  attention  to  the  furnishing  of  the 
kitchen  because  they  realize  that  a  well  planned 
kitchen  is  the  keynote  to  a  happy  and  contented 
household.
